A team of archaeologists and paleontologists from Argentina, the U.S. and China has unearthed the first known example of a fossilized Alvarezsauridae skeleton with evidence of air pockets in its bones. In their paper published in the open-access journal PLOS ONE, the group describes where they found the fossil, its condition, and their surprise at finding evidence of pneumaticity in most of its bones.
